Dorm History
Founded in 1952, Fisher Hall has been the premiere residence hall on the campus of the University of Notre Dame for fifty-six incredible years. Throughout its glorious existence, residents of the Cadillac of Dorms have strived to push the limits of dorm involvement, participating in a host of activities ranging from the fun and creative to spiritual- and service- oriented projects.
Constructed in 1952 as housing for 156 seniors, Fisher Hall was dedicated by Sally Fisher to her husband, Fred Fisher, former member of the Board of Trustees. At the time of construction, Fisher was only the 2nd dorm to have a social lounge. Summer 2001 renovations included new social space and a new chapel.
Fisher Hall has also housed its fair share of celebrities and Notre Dame legends. NBA stars LaPhonso Ellis (’92) and Orlando Woolridge (’81) once walked our halls. The one and only Regis Philbin (’53) called Fisher Hall home as well. And the legend among legends, Joe Montana (’79), is proud to call himself a Fisherman.
